LooperDash is the golf scorecard built for the social money round — one shared card your whole group scores in real time, with every game's money settled automatically. No paper, no math on the 18th green, no arguing about who owes whom. It's also a genuinely free scorecard and handicap app. A free account gets you: • Unlimited rounds, scored live on one card the whole group shares • Gross and net leaderboards that update as scores land • Season stats that follow you round to round • Free Handicap Index linking with score posting — link the Index you already hold through your club, and your strokes apply automatically for everyone in the group • Offline scoring that syncs the moment you're back in range BUILT FOR BETTING GAMES Most golf apps do GPS or stat tracking. LooperDash does the wager — properly. Six game engines expand into about twenty formats, each with real rules, handicaps, ties, and payouts handled for you: • The Point Game • Classic (Nassau) — Match Play, Stroke Play, Best Ball, Low Ball Low Total, Tournament Mode • Stableford / Quota — Gross, Net, Modified • Skins — Gross, Net, Canadian, Combo • Wolf — Classic, Coin Flip, All-vs-All • Team Pickem As scores come in, LooperDash tracks each player's standing in every active game and shows a live summary of who owes whom — carryovers and presses included. It keeps score of the friendly stakes between you and your group; it does not process payments or pay out money. A Premium member hosts the games. Anyone they invite plays every game free. EVENTS, LEAGUES & CUPS Event Mode turns a buddies trip, member-guest, or season league into one multi-day event: every group scores its normal card, games settle each day, and it all rolls up into one overall leaderboard. Run a full Ryder Cup-style team cup — Four-Ball, Alternate Shot, and Singles, every match worth a cup point with a live race-to-clinch board. Or run a single-elimination bracket in any format and let winners advance automatically from the live scores. PLAYS EVERYWHERE Free to play. Premium to host. Bring your group.
